Resilient Cereal Production

As we look to the future and the challenges ahead – increasingly unpredictable weather, new pests and diseases, the need to reduce the environmental impact of farming, to name just a few – it’s this passion, willingness to exchange information in pursuit of the quest for knowledge combined with the latest technology and tools will ensure resilient cereal production.

IPM and Resistance Management

Integrated Pest Management (IPM) has never been more important to how farmers manage their crops. By using cultural controls and IPM, the aim is to minimise environmental, health and economic risks. In practice, farmers are already implementing a wide range of IPM activities, depending on their system, their farm and their philosophy.

Profitable break crops

With margins being squeezed on both sides, pressure is mounting for break crops to pay their way. They are an increasingly important part of the rotation. We’re wanting them to build soil health, capture nutrients, offer financial returns as well as break pest and disease cycles.

Soil and Nitrogen Management

Whether it’s travelability, availability of nutrients, draining and storing water, soil health is entwined with every aspect of production. So, whether we’re talking about disease control, tackling black-grass, getting the most from pulses, the topic is never far away.
